Nigeria Considers South Africa Sanctions

Nigeria is considering imposing sanctions on South Africa in response to a fresh wave of xenophobic attacks targeting Nigerian citizens.

The federal government has already approved five evacuation flights to repatriate Nigerians wishing to leave the affected country.

Nigeria's Foreign Minister stated that the South African government's claim that the violence is only directed at illegal immigrants is false.

This diplomatic tension highlights the ongoing challenges of xenophobia and regional relations in Africa.
